Piancornello's Brunello di Montalcino 2019 is initially elegantly restrained with rosy flowers, nuances of cherry and worn leather, contrasted by a hint of sour citrus fruit. It then impresses on the palate with a silky texture and cool radiance, while the lively acidity brings out ripe red berries and minerals. The finish is structured, very savoury with notes of plum and liquorice that linger incredibly long under a hint of violet-tinged flowers. A beautiful, taut and firm Brunello from an equally beautiful vintage. SUPERIORE.DE

"The nose is wistful and comforting, with aromas of dried cherries, rose petals, old leather, crushed rocks, soil and wild fennel. Plums and fresh cherries brighten the palate, although a pinch of salt and pepper accentuates an enduring earthiness. Tannins are firm and toothy, but approachable, like a wild animal that has learned to trust." Wine Enthusiast

"The youthfully intense Brunello di Montalcino 2019 seduces with a dusty blend of dried black cherries, incense, dark chocolate and spices. It floods the palate with soft, enveloping textures and ripe red and blue fruits, while purple flowers resonate within and fine tannins slowly gather towards the finish. The wine is incredibly long and powerful, with a hint of primary concentration that lingers as cedar and a bitter hint of tart cranberry slowly fade. Piancornello is back on form with the 2019 vintage. Very well done." Vinous

"Black cherries and plums with notes of mocha, liquorice and reduced balsamic on the nose. So bright and focused on the palate, with a medium to full body and very fine but firm and chewy tannins framing the core of juicy fruit. It's nervy and energetic with excellent balance and length. Structured." James Suckling
